The Newbee is a sport plane designed for fun. It is not intended to be a trainer or a park flier, just a fun little aerobatic plane that will fit in your trunk in one piece. It is highly maneuverable without being scary or twitchy and is a wonderful plane for small fields.

Your listed engine is within the recommended range.

You'll need to talk to your future instructor about using this model to learn to fly. I'd prefer a more traditional trainer type plane (SIG LT-25 or Great Planes PT-20 could use the Magnum 28) for learning and then move to the Newbee.
